Note: Our eagle-eyed Quality Team found surface imperfections in the wood and paint — the birds won’t mind, but we’ve taken 30% off the original price anyway! We recommend applying a coat of polyurethane to protect the finish.

Cheerful birdhouse in breezy summer colors

Invite colorful (and pest-eating) songbirds to take up residence

Choice of Orange, Blue or Green

Brightly colored with a galvanized metal roof, this birdhouse has a 1-1/4" entrance hole, perfect for nuthatches, titmice, wrens and chickadees. Made from pine with a double-layer protective coating. Metal ring around the entrance deters gnawing predators, and clean out door on the back makes end of season housekeeping easy.

I bought these three birdhouses primarily due to their reasonable cost. I will wait to add them to my yard until early spring. In the meantime I added a coat of marine varnish to preserve the wood as well as the colors. This was actually called to my attention when I made the purchase. I cannot wait to see what beautiful creatures choose them for their new families.

I bought this to use outdoors, as a bird house. It is a little flimsy in construction/materials. Do not expect it to last many seasons. The bird entrance hole may be to big so that it may be taken over/used by English Sparrows, rather then wrens or other more desired smaller birds. Will drill a small hole in the bottom to aid in drainage while in use. It is very nice looking.

There are more than two dozen North American bird species that prefer to nest in a natural cavity. These cavity-nesting birds will often adapt to nesting in a birdhouse (also known as an artificial nesting box).
